Draft Grade — Panthers
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureA+
The Panthers did the homework and the board rewarded it: A-.

The Panthers bet big and early on Jake Briningstool, 107 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

However the rest shakes out, Grant at that price is a win they earned. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In pick No. 25 they get a premier pass rusher at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in the Round 2 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick74 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
They jumped the gun on Carson Schwesinger, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick110 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at the 110th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick113 Rnd4 Kyren Lacy
Kyren Lacy at slot 113 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick127 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in No. 127 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jake Briningstool
Jake Briningstool in the 141st pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick147 Rnd5 Charles Grant
They will replay Charles Grant at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jabbar Muhammad
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jabbar Muhammad at No. 164 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick229 Rnd7 Ricky White III
Steal is underselling it; Ricky White III at the 229th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
